Activities
Our Goals
N
Club Finland was established to advance and promote N scale
model railway hobby in Finland. The emphasis is on module
technology and European style N model railways. In our
community, we value everyone's achievements and we want to
encourage our members to participate shared projects actively.
For all of us, this is a unique hobby that everyone should enjoy
and be able to enjoy stress free relaxation.
Member Forum
Our "club house" is located in the Internet; our private member
forum is a place for vivid
discussions between our members and where we can share resources
of many sorts. The forums serve as a depository for
publications, images, computer data files etc.
Standards
We work actively for the adoption
and promotion of standards in the Finnish N scale model railway
world. The most important activity in this area is our module
standard and in this particular area we work actively with other
clubs using the same base standard around the world.
Resources
We help our members to get access to many useful resources for N
scale model railway hobby. Our membership in
INGA.NET,
the leading N scale organization in the world, is especially
useful in bringing to our members resources and
information otherwise impossible to find in Finland. In the
material sector, the most important project is the procurement
channels for module ends and complete module kits for our
members.
Module Gatherings
The most visible and perhaps the most exciting part of our
activities are our module gatherings. These gatherings take
usually place in various hobby shows and exhibitions and our
members bring their own modules which are combined to form a
huge N scale module track. As we have adopted a module standard
which is used in other countries too, it is easy for our members
to visit foreign module gatherings with their own modules or
vice versa. In future, we plan to organize our own,
international module meetings in Finland.
